"I would advise a school leader to prioritize supporting their teachers and students by starting here.
These seminars provide an opportunity to reflect on your own experiences with math and to analyze how others process and solve problems in their own unique ways. This brings a wave of hope; the more educators who begin to think differently, the greater the ripple effect will be on helping a generation of students appreciate and grow in their understanding of math.
ANDREA / Elementary and Middle School Principal
"Working with Erin felt like a metamorphosis.
I came in thinking I was a well rounded math teacher, and left realizing I had a relatively limited insight into my students' rationales and methodologies.There were many 'aha' moments that we all hope to transfer back into our classrooms.

RACHEL / ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL AND INSTRUCTIONAL COACH
"Erin raised the bar for student voice in my classroom.
She helped me work through anticipated misconceptions, and choose places I wanted to prioritize in my lessons. As a result, I have seen higher participation from all students in my classroom, and more fearlessness from them when sharing complex ideas. Erin did not come into my classroom and ask to change systems, but rather adapted to my classroom as is and used her expertise to create better outcomes for me and my students."
WILL / 8TH GRADE MATH TEACHER
"Erin brings an unrivaled depth of knowledge, creativity, and experience to the math professional development and instructional space.
In pursuit of student growth in mathematics, Erin pushes against the traditional classroom setting. She looks empirically and creatively at systems in order to determine if they promote student growth or merely exist because of tradition. Her focus lies on getting students to think - at which she is a master. Erin used her experience to guide me in my journey in building a thinking classroom. I have seen students who had never engaged come alive under the practices Erin teaches. Her work with me has transformed my classroom and my practice."
